    On UK TV, "Penn and Teller: Fool us".

    Phg5NSg0V_E Penn and Teller looking for opening acts for their Vegas Show. Lots of Magic (comparatively) on UK TV at the moment with BBC's "The Magicians". Spoiled a bit by the inclusion of celebs but still watchable.

    Sean Penn to the rescue in New Orleans

    When I first saw someone write this in a message board, without attribution, I assumed they were making it up because it is so silly. But I googled it and sure enough, it's true. Here it is, take a look. Go about 70% of the way down to the section titled "Sean Penn founders in floodwaters."...

    Penn on Chicago radio

    If you're in earshot of Chicago radio stations, turn to WCKG 105.9 FM all week from 1:00 to 2:00. Penn Gillette is doing his own radio show! Knowing Penn, I'm sure many skeptical topics will come up. After his show stay tuned for Steve Dahl from 2-7 Jeff

    What Penn and Teller Do

    I'm prompted to do this because of a rather good question: 'Are Penn and Teller merely entertainers?' And what sources would you cite to indicate otherwise? If indeed, you thought they were more than entertainers? I have on another computer, several essays by Penn that illustrate more than...

    Channel 4. 10pm Sunday night. (UK) 'Faking It' is a programme where they take someone from a completely different lifestyle and teach them a new skill. After a few weeks they have to 'fool' a panel of experts. I think the chap in this one is a teacher - and they are training him to be a...

    I'm irritated by Penn and Teller

    I just saw the episode of http://www.randi.org/jr/040904that.html#5 that covered drugs and the war thereon. While, ideologically, I favor the legalization of the majority of drugs, there were three things about this episode that really stuck in my craw. 1) The whole "nobody has ever died from...

    How Penn changed my life...

    OK I feel strongly enough about this that I am going to explain how Penn's remarks changed my life. I'm totally serious when I write this. I am a deist, but when he said that we needed to be totally honest with people, and that we could be totally honest and still be liked, I was struck as if...
